In the heart of Europe lies an ancient portal. It is situated at a juncture, at the point where two ley lines -- invisible avenues of energy -- cross.For ten thousand years, this doorway has connected the worlds of man and myth. But now the old energies are fading, and tomorrow the ancient gateway will close.For ever.

Her entire life, Mirabel has felt like the odd one out of the Madrigal family. No gift, no talent, no miracle.... No one could possibly comprehend what it is like to be her. So then why does the mysterious man living in the walls understand her better than her family can? [An AU in which Mirabel discovers Bruno before the magic disappears, but has no idea who he is.]

“...Oh. Your gift is back too, isn’t it?” She watched his throat bob and he nodded. She hummed. “All right. Why don’t we go… talk somewhere else. Somewhere quieter.” OR Mirabel Madrigal realized, very abruptly, what the return of the magic means for her Tío Bruno, and then she realized even more.

Mirabel was decently sure this wasn't normal... Most families didn't have an uncle living in the walls. And if they did, surely the parents knew about it? Surely?! But, well, we don't talk about Bruno. So the Madrigal children didn't. It wasn't their fault their parents and grandma were so oblivious. And tío Bruno was nice to them, so they were happy to keep his secret. They didn't talk about Bruno, they talked with Bruno instead.

Bruno may not have had favorites among his nieces and nephew, but Mirabel certainly did. (A story where Bruno realizes that Mirabel needs glasses, his thoughts and feelings concerning his gift, and generally what it means to be a socially awkward uncle).

His head turned back up, staring at the winding steps. “You don’t want to go up there.” It was a statement. He shook his head. “Not really, no. Well, I mean, I could, but it’s a lot of stairs, and I don’t…” His throat bobbed and he let out a forced laugh. “No one ever visited me up there. That’s one of the reasons I became such good friends with the rats. They were the only ones who were ever there.” OR After all the festivities have ended and the family has gone to bed, Mirabel Madrigal finds Tío Bruno sitting at the bottom of the stairs in his tower, staring up toward the top as if there was nothing he wanted to do less than climb them. Faced with a problem, Mirabel finds a solution. She always does.

Bruno’s lesser known prophecies creep up on him, and this time at dinner he can’t find the energy to zone back into the present to hide it.

Bruno isn't what he thought.Mind you, Bruno left when Camilo was 5, and since then the boy had only heard stories that definitely didn't give him nightmares.But even then, he's nothing like what he thought, strange little habits and rituals that make no sense, he's the only person Camilo can't figure out.But maybe that's a good thing?

"They didn’t understand that no matter how much he wished to, no matter how much he internally pleaded with himself, the future wants to be known." or, the one where Bruno has the minor issue of hitting himself in the head when he feels a vision coming on or his thoughts become too much to handle. His family are not exactly very happy about this.

“Lo siento, Tío,” she murmured.Tío Bruno was fiddling with his hands, his fingers folding over one another, unfolding, and then folding back into a different shape. His brow was scrunched, the way it had been when he was preparing for the vision with Mirabel.Still, he shrugged, and let out a small, forced laugh. “It’s all right. Sooner it’s done, sooner it’s over with, right?”ORThe morning after the miracle returns, the Madrigals are on top of the world. Mirabel and Tío Bruno, stuck with the knowledge of his vision from the previous night and preparing to tell Abuela about it, are decidedly less excited than the rest of their family is.

[discontinued] Bruno felt it when Mirabel accepted his hands. The rush of familiar magic; the pull of a prophecy coming to fruition before them. But as he stared at his niece within the sand, her glassy eyes illuminated like golden halos in the dark. She saw something he hadn’t, something he’d missed in all his years of telling the future. He knew there and then that she had indeed been given a gift all those years ago. A powerful, humbling, dangerous gift. Magic like his; except where he toiled too often in the dark…she strode so fearlessly in the light.

The night Mirabel doesn't get her gift is the same night Bruno has his vision of the future. After a conversation with his mother, he realizes that if he lets things be, then Mirabel will grow up just like him- outcast and alone. So he does what any “sane”, protective uncle would do and runs away with her in the middle of the night.

When the magic returned, Bruno's visions did as well. His method of stopping them is not exactly the best. For blackfliesinbluesugar on tumblr.
